“Shakedown”

Update: “The president just called for creating a fund that would be administered by outsiders, which would be more of a redistribution-of-wealth fund.” That’s Michelle Bachmann, who apparently has forgotten that a taxpayer-funded clean-up would also be “redistribution of wealth.” In fact—and stick with me here—anytime anybody gives anybody else money or anything of value…it’s a redistribution of wealth.

Seriously, I wish these idiots would change their talking points more often. There are days when I think that if I hear “redistribution of wealth,” “socialism,” “down our throats,” or “under the bus” one more fucking time I’m going to lose my goddamn mind, start performing Lerner and Loewe numbers on street corners in my boxer shorts and riding boots.
